Relocating and finding a new home can be an exciting experience, but it’s not without its difficulties. It’s often described as one of the hardest life events to live through, particularly because it can be such an unpredictable process that involves so many different parties and moving parts. It can be overwhelming, and is likely to be even more so if you’re relocating as a member of the military.

Having access to the right resources to guide you through the process will make all the difference. At Ready Stays, we are one hundred percent dedicated to providing a safe, secure, comfortable living space for military personnel and their families living in the Tampa Bay area. We’re proud to be able to provide personalized assistance to meet your requirements and help to take the stress out of your move. During times of stress and uncertainty, we understand the importance of keeping things simple and straightforward.

Whether you’re in the Marines, Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, or in need of housing as a government employee, Ready Stays can offer you short-term and extended-stay rentals in safe, secure, and centralized locations. We pride ourselves on being a far more affordable option than a stay in a hotel, and a stay with us is sure to be a hundred times more comfortable. Despite our affordable rates we never skimp on quality, so all our properties include all modern conveniences and are available fully furnished. Our one to three-bedroom, fully-serviced apartments include spacious kitchens, kitted out with the appliances, homewares and accessories you’ll need to cook fresh, healthy meals for yourself and your family, as well as top quality furnishings that’ll make your stay with us that much more comfortable.

Hear from a satisfied guest!

I had a great experience working with the Ready Stays team. If I could give them 6 Stars, I would. They were easy to work with and we’re always responsive when I needed something. I highly recommend renting with them.

James is a military service member who was originally assigned to MacDill Air Force Base and needed housing for at least 6 months, potentially longer. James wanted to be close enough for an easy commute to the base, but also wanted to be in a nice area within walking distance to a range of restaurants.

Because of James’ position in the military, he was on a fixed per diem, so we had to ensure we met his criteria, and ensure we could stay within his budget. We placed James in one of our Westshore rentals, conveniently and centrally located in Tampa, and just a short 15-minute drive to MacDill Air Force Base. Even better is the fact it’s within walking distance of some of Tampa’s best dining and steakhouses.

Because military service members can be deployed with very little notice, we were extremely flexible with James’ stay. Just two months in, he was deployed to the Middle East and needed to leave with just two days’ notice, and we were happy to be able to accommodate this. Three months later, James returned to Tampa and, of course, reached out to us again, where we were able to place him in an almost identical floor plan right in the same Westshore area, where he stayed for another 6 months until the end of his assignment. James could trust that we were able to take care of him, so much so he has referred more than 5 other military service members since working with us!

Ready stays contacted me to place a displaced family in my home for 2 months while the families home was repaired. Obviously this is a very stressful time for the family and Ready Stays was wonderful throughout the process! Responsive (even on weekends), calm communicators whose process and procedures put everyone at ease. Highly recommend their services -

Sad to be parting company (although temporarily) with Ready Stays the worlds best organization and business geared for traveling professionals who need modern, affordable high-quality, safe and very comfortable living situations for their traveling assignmentd.. After a miserable start with a another entity I found my way to Ready Stays about two months into my now almost 2 year gig in Tampa. The entire team was helpful from the onset as well as very very friendly very accessible and completely responsive to any need or any question I had. Although I have a three month hiatus in my traveling professional work as I head onto my next journey in February there is no other organization and company that I will do business with other than Ready Stays, they are simply the best and unmatched in customer service and the quality of the units that they offer.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Steve, for all of the kind words! We're so happy to know our service was exceptional over the last 2 years! Thanks again for choosing Ready Stays! We look forward to working with you again in the future!

Ready Stays was very easy to deal with, professional, courteous and followed thru on what they said they would do. Wanda Landin was great to work with and knowledgeable about the rental market. In my business as a Property Manager it's important for me to be able to reach someone if there's an issue. Ready Stays made it convenient to get in touch with them if I needed to. I look forward to working with them in the future.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Arty! We've enjoyed working with you and we appreciate your thoughtful review :)

I had an absolutely wonderful stay with Ready Stays. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by how clean and well-decorated the space was—every detail was thoughtfully arranged. The location was perfect, making it easy to explore the area and enjoy everything the neighborhood had to offer. The real highlight, though, was the hospitality of Ready Stays. They were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to ensure I had everything I needed, offering helpful recommendations and assistance whenever required. Their warm and attentive approach truly made the experience special. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a comfortable, stylish, and welcoming place to stay.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the 5-star review, Clarice! It was a pleasure accommodating you and your family :)

Perfect Stay — 5 Minutes from Tampa Airport! I cannot say enough wonderful things about my stay here! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and completely at home. The place was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything I needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. Every detail was thoughtfully considered — from the cozy linens to the fully stocked kitchen and the peaceful atmosphere. One of the best parts? The location! It’s only 5 minutes from Tampa International Airport, which made traveling so easy and stress-free. Plus, it’s close to all the top spots in Tampa — beaches, restaurants, shopping, and more — yet still peaceful and quiet. The host was incredibly kind, responsive, and made sure I had everything I needed. You can tell they truly care about creating a great experience for their guests. I felt safe, relaxed, and honestly didn’t want to leave! I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Tampa. Whether you’re here for a quick trip or a longer stay, you won’t be disappointed. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Response from the owner:Thank you, Wiktoria! We appreciate your kind review, and look forward to accommodating you and your family again in the future!
I had the opportunity to work from home down in Tampa for about six weeks and used Ready Stays to help with finding me a place. They were an excellent service, they were attentive to any needs I had and they were super professional with all my interactions. Would highly recommend them.
